SSO (Single Sign-On) is a feature that enables secure authentication of users in multiple applications and websites with just one set of credentials.
SSO is available for team subscriptions with 50+ users and offers the following benefits:
- It reduces the manual effort for team admins to onboard team members
- It simplifies the login process for team members since they do not have to remember multiple login credentials to access DeepL Pro
Team admins cannot log in with SSO. To configure or adjust SSO settings at any time, admins should continue to log in with their login credentials.
Team members can log in via SSO by signing in via the company’s central identity provider. Everyone who is authenticated by this identity provider can access their respective DeepL account.
Supported platforms

User management
For each new user who accesses DeepL via SSO, a new DeepL account is created. Once you reach the limit of team members in your plan, no other new team members will be able to use DeepL via your paid plan.
This means that any user who is successfully logged in via your identity provider can create a DeepL account until the maximum limit of team members for your team is reached.
If you reach the maximum limit of team members in your team and a new user attempts to join your team, the system looks for SSO team members who have not logged in to their accounts for 30 days or more. If the system finds such users, the accounts of users with the the longest time since their last session will be deactivated so that the new user can use DeepL via your paid plan.
